Changelog, v8.5:

Bug fixes:
- Clicking Undo after clearing chips now properly restores them.
- Keyboard shortcut badges on mode buttons no longer get cut off at the bottom.
- On macOS, the tree scrollbar no longer overlaps folder pin icons.
- Switching from QBF to QuickSave (and vice versa) using keyboard shortcuts now works seamlessly — no need to manually close either window first.
- Notification text is now easy to read in both Day and Night modes.
- Pressing Cmd (⌘) on Mac now shows keyboard shortcut hints, just like Option.
- Closed Tabs in History mode now loads more reliably, with automatic retry if Firefox is slow to provide the data.
- The Settings Save button is now clearly greyed out when no changes have been made.

Improvements:
- The results panel drag handle now proportionally shrinks the tree when you drag it down, and can expand further when the tree is hidden.
- The URL-as-Tab keyboard shortcut now works even when QBF isn't open — it launches QBF in Find mode with URL-as-Tab ready to go.
- On Mac, Cmd+letter shortcuts now work for filter pills (All, Folders, Bookmarks, URL) — not just Option+letter.
- Keyboard shortcut badges have a fresh look: accent-colored with a subtle pop-in animation.
- The toolbar icon save animation now features a smooth directional wipe effect.
- Simple/Advanced settings toggle is now a sleek sliding pill — tap either option to switch.
- Pressing and holding the Save button in Settings (600ms) saves your changes and collapses all sections for a clean slate.
- Saving Settings on macOS now automatically closes the color picker if it's open.

UX:
The entire Settings dialog has been polished: softer corners, refined shadows, tinted section headers, hover highlights on rows, a warm Home Folder card, and more tactile buttons throughout — designed to feel pleasant and inviting to explore. :-)

Changelog, v8.4:

New features:
- Safety confirmations: chip 'Clear' buttons now require a two-step confirmation to prevent accidental deletion.
- Enhanced navigation: Shift+click the toolbar icon to open the full QBF interface directly.
- Search guide: Click the "?" icon in the search bar for a quick reference on search syntax.
- Link bookmarking: right-click any link in a web page to save it instantly with pre-filled details.
- Rename Windows: double-click window names in Tabs mode to set custom, persistent labels.
- Tab management: The path bar now shows a breakdown of saved versus total selected tabs.
- Touch support: Added long-press functionality to trigger tooltips on touch devices.

Improvements & fixes:
- UI performance: Eliminated visual flickering in the path bar and history panel.
- Drag-and-drop: improved reliability when reordering tree items; widened drop zones for easier use.
- Settings: streamlined menus, standardized UI elements, and improved tooltip visibility.
- Keyboard shortcut recorder: improved stability; now displays non-blocking yellow warnings for conflicting key binds.
- Visual polish: Refined tab row layouts, path bar tooltips, and chip sizes for a cleaner, more compact interface.

Changelog, v8.3:

Added:
- Configurable global shortcuts. Settings now has a "Window & Quicksave shortcuts" section where you can change the three browser-level shortcuts (open/close QBF window, open/close Quicksave popup, open QBF in URL-as-Tab mode). Click a binding to open a live recorder; hold the keys you want and click Apply.
- Conflict detection on shortcuts. The recorder shows a red/yellow/green status as you press, comparing your combo against a curated list of OS-native and Firefox-native shortcuts. Mac and Windows have separate catalogs.
- Suggested shortcut alternatives. When a conflict is detected, two or three alternatives are offered as click-to-apply pills, biased toward sharing modifiers with what you tried.
- OS-aware key glyphs. Mac shows ⌘ ⌥ ⌃ ⇧; Windows shows Ctrl/Alt/Shift. Detected automatically.
- Blank folders tool. Settings → Tools → Scan… finds every folder named "New folder" / "New Folder N" / empty across your library and shows them in a dialog where you can rename or delete in batch.
- Multi-tab save title fetching. When saving multiple tabs at once, any tab whose title is missing or matches its URL gets a real page-title fetch in parallel before the bookmarks are created.

Changed:
- Settings → Colors → CHIPS reordered to follow the QBF UI: Suggested → Recent Locations → Home → Quick Links → Active/Selected. Previously Quick Links came first.
- Settings dialog now reflows internally when dragged narrow — long row labels wrap onto their own line so values stay readable.
- Help dialog text updated to point new users to Settings for shortcut reconfiguration (was "configurable in about:addons").

Fixed:
- Tab key inside Settings. Plain Tab and Shift+Tab now stay inside the Settings dialog instead of jumping to QBF elements behind it. Affects both Windows and macOS.
- Esc consistency for chip delete. Pressing Del on a chip then Esc to cancel no longer interferes with the double-Esc window-close timer. Rapid Esc-Esc after dismissing chip pending-delete will not unexpectedly close the window.

Changelog, v8.2:

Fixes:
- Settings panel no longer stays semi-transparent after picking a color. Clicking anywhere in the dialog clears it immediately.

Enhancements:
Suggested folders now look beyond the domain — QBF reads keywords from the URL path and page title to find more relevant folder suggestions.

Interface:
- Settings window auto-sizes to its contents — expands when you open a section, shrinks when you close one, up to 80% of screen height.
- Keyboard shortcut hints on filter pills are no longer clipped — they now sit visibly above the pill edge when you hold Alt / Option.
- History time-of-day groups (Morning, Afternoon, Night) are more clearly nested under their day, better aligned, and more visible in dark mode.
- "Settings saved" and other status notifications now appear in a calm grey tone. Green is reserved for bookmark saves.
- Notification text is brighter in dark mode — easier to read at a glance.
- Settings › Colors › Chips is now organized by chip type — Quick Links, Recent, Home, Suggested, Active — so each type's background, border, and text colors sit together.
- Right-clicking the toolbar icon shows a colored icon matching the current page's bookmark status — blue for unsaved, green for saved, purple for duplicate.

Mac shortcuts:
- Cmd+Ctrl+D opens the full QBF window. Cmd+Ctrl+S opens Quick Save.
- Cmd+1/2/3/4 switches modes (Save, Find, Tabs, History), alongside the existing Option+1/2/3/4.
- Cmd+N creates a new folder in the tree.

- History/Tabs toolbar demarcation line removed (border-bottom)
- History/Tabs toolbar buttons unified dimensions

- Filter-btn key-hint repositioned above pill, to avoid clipping by rounded corners
- Ctrl+Left/Right passes through to inputs for native word-jumping (was intercepted for mode cycling)
- Results panel doesn't auto-scroll on click (only on keyboard nav) — stabilizes view for exploring

Features

+ macOS platform detection (isMacOS flag) for Help shortcuts display
+ QS suppresses Πcharacter from Option+Shift+Q on Mac
